i think what kills the design isn't the kidney grills it's that god awful "smile" of a front bumper. can someone PS the E60M front bumper? that should help it look much better, my biggest concern is how badly they will ruin the rear of the car...

BMW is sure making it easy to choose other brands these days. Their new styling, or complete lack there of, is terribly boring. If I wanted a boring looking car, I'd buy a Toyota. At least it would be a reliable car. Unless things change, I'd gonna look at Audi or Mercedes Benz.

Thats pretty bad, has the same oversize grills as the new 7. Do you guys know if Bangle had anything to with this or the new 7?
I love my E46 more and more when I see these pics of BMWs "new direction" haha

let's not look too much into this car yet... i mean come on, it's a picture where you barely see anything.

I think that if you are a fan of the new E89 Z4, I think you'll also like the F10. Personally, I think that car looks amazing. You really do have to see it in real life to fully appreciate the details.
